Wizards pursue the truth

Chapter 101 [101] Setbacks are an encouragement to the evil god virus and its powerful enemies (6000)

"I believe in your strength, but don't be careless. There are many strong opponents this time. Whether my Anton family can make a name for itself and go further depends on this secret realm competition."

Kaze Anton's expression suddenly darkened, as if he had remembered something. He sighed and said, "If Isar were still alive and hadn't gone to search for the Black Sun Wizard's remains, perhaps the current situation of our Anton family would be different."

The Rhine lineage has already designated Isar as its successor, and has even bestowed upon him the inheritance of witchcraft and some extraordinary knowledge.

If nothing unexpected happens, his strength should have already advanced to the level of a Limitless Wizard Apprentice by now.

With the support of the Rhine lineage, they should at least be able to enter the top ten wizarding families, instead of being a small or medium-sized family with so little say.

They have no decision-making power; they can only be executors.

Most importantly, the tokens containing clues to the Black Sun Wizard's remains were also lost along with Isar's disappearance.

The Anton family's greatest opportunity has thus been lost.

Kazeantun did not notice the change in his youngest son's expression, and the intense resentment in his eyes.

It tells you to be careful of the opponents in the secret realm competition.

For example, Rhodes, a genius new student trained by the Stark family, is a powerful elemental wizard who, with the full support of the Stark family, is one of the strongest opponents in this secret realm competition.

The witchcraft he possesses is extremely unique, likely inherited from the Stark family, and his particle energy is also somewhat special.

There are also the two brothers from the Mad family, "Aitrie" and "Gutres," personally trained by the family patriarch Ockham and following the path of mechanical wizards. The rules of the Secret Realm competition do not forbid mutual assistance. With the two working together, their threat level will be the greatest among the new wizards.

Kazeantun instructed Zac to be constantly aware of the mechanical wizard's reconnaissance methods.

Fawkes of the Grandet family is different from wizards in the conventional sense. He follows the path of a dark wizard, specializing in bizarre and unpredictable magic.

Rayleigh, the direct descendant of the Shebir family and a genius, follows the path of a blood wizard, also known as a white wizard. His methods are equally formidable, seemingly the opposite of Fox's.

"Dante of the Churchill family is unclear about his situation and poses a certain threat, but he can be placed in the second batch. Also, Jim of the Norwegian family has an extremely high affinity for water elemental energy, and his progress in mastering witchcraft is definitely not slow. This is very effective against your fire elemental energy witchcraft, Zack, you need to be careful."

Kazeantun frowned, looking at his youngest son who had his head down, and said with some displeasure, "Zack, are you even listening?"

Zach looked up and said seriously, "Father, of course I'm listening, but I want to tell you something. Isar is a thing of the past. Leave the future of the family to me. What he could do, I will do even better."

Zach's words startled Hades, who was standing to the side. He glanced at Kazean's reaction out of the corner of his eye, and his heart pounded.

Kazeantuan stared coldly at Zac with an expressionless face, while Zac's eyes were equally firm, carrying a stubborn and unyielding quality.

Hades then gestured to Zack with his eyes, but the latter ignored him and continued, "Isar has disappeared and has not returned for many years. He may have died on the way to explore the ruins of the Black Sun Wizard, which also caused the family to lose the Black Sun Medal."

"He's just a loser. I'll show you, Wizard Kaze, how to take the top spot in the secret realm competition. He can get into the extraordinary school, but I might not be any worse than him."

Zak'Anton's face was full of confidence, which came not only from the shamanic book of Isar, but also from an opportunity that belonged to him personally.

This is a trump card that will absolutely shock everyone.

Kazeantun stared coldly at Zach, his lips moving slightly. "It's good that you have your own ideas, but the family's plans cannot be compromised. If you fail to meet your performance expectations, I will personally punish you and give the rest of the family an explanation."

Zach met his gaze back, stubborn yet persistent.

"I hope your performance is as good as you say." Kazeantun exuded a terrifying aura, and some scattered objects in the room were instantly reduced to dust under this aura.

Fortunately, he didn't have much emotional reaction to such a trivial matter, nor did he release any particle energy.

Zach still held value for him and his family, so he granted him this indulgence.

As Hades felt the overwhelming aura gradually dissipate, he breathed a sigh of relief. Having a strict and formidable father was truly difficult.

He was usually fearless, but he was utterly terrified of Kazeantun.

Looking at Zack, one couldn't help but feel a deep respect, secretly giving him a thumbs up. He truly deserved to be Hades's genius younger brother.

Kazeantun added, "Besides the powerful opponents I've mentioned, there are some new wizards you must be wary of."

"An enemy from the same school of thought?"

"That's right, they were hidden too well. I even went to investigate, but I still couldn't find the person they planted. Their magical abilities are also unknown. If it weren't for one of the wizarding newbies named Wang Yahalak being exposed, the entire Wizarding Family Alliance would probably still be in the dark."

Kazeantun was truly terrified by the methods of the school of thought; they were too terrifying.

If it had been discovered so quietly, perhaps a year later, the other school of thought would have snatched the three spots away.

"You also need to pay attention to this King Yaharak. He was the one who discovered the evil god incident, and most of his methods are unknown. The information we currently know is that he has mastered fire elemental energy magic, the quantity of which is unknown, and he also has a raven being cultivated, the progress of which is unknown, but judging from its behavior, it should not be fully cultivated."

Kazeantun reiterated, "Be extremely careful of King Yahalak. He's shrouded in mystery and unknowns. His safe return from the evil god incident proves his worth. Unless absolutely necessary, avoid engaging him in the secret realm competition. Just secure a top-three spot; fighting to the death isn't what we should be doing."

"I understand, Father."

Zak'Anton's eyes gleamed with an inexplicable light. Wang Yahalak, the most powerful and mysterious opponent, I really look forward to it.

Thinking about the methods he possessed, his nervousness lessened slightly.

He absolutely cannot lose.

Meanwhile, within the territories of other wizarding families, their respective prodigies are also receiving relevant information and working to improve their weaknesses in combat.

Unlimited supply of extraordinary resources, along with excellent level three wizard apprentice teachers. The creatures needed for cultivating extraordinary magic are also selected as the best, and cultivation begins directly with extraordinary creatures. The improvement a wizard can achieve in two years under such circumstances is incredibly terrifying.

This is also the foundation of a wizarding family—a formidable force of family unity.

Black trees, lush forests, deep within a majestic ancient castle, inside a tightly closed laboratory.

A figure dressed in a wizard's robe stood in front of the incubation chamber. The mirror reflected his pale face, which had a sickly beauty. The beauty mark next to his eye added to his eerie appearance. His gaze was fixed on the incubation chamber.

The bizarre, blocky flesh with blackish-gray markings began to come into contact with another kind of fluid, scarlet, active flesh, and as time went on, the two gradually merged.

The dark gray has entered the scarlet, and vice versa. No, this is not fusion, but rather a process of mutual devouring and repulsion.

The piercing scream could still be heard by Wang Ya, even through the glass partition, causing him to frown.

A powerful mental force emanated from the sea of ​​consciousness, dispelling the effects of the mental stimulation and transforming into a flowing tentacle to examine the internal situation.

However, before it could reach the glass, there was a loud "crack" as a large amount of flesh and blood fragments exploded and splattered onto the isolation glass.

The nearest piece of viscous flesh, right in front of Wang Ya, slowly slid down the glass, revealing a slightly gloomy expression.

Then, he took out a notebook from his pocket and began to write things down without any expression.

[Sixth experiment failed: The 'flesh embryo' created using the 'Shadowwing Dark Raven' bloodline as its source could not be fused with the flesh and blood of Gendass.]

[Speculation: The experiment has gone astray; it's heading in the wrong direction. Perhaps we need to approach it from a different angle.]

Wang Ya slowly put down the notebook in his hand and lowered his eyes wearily.

He failed; uncovering the extraordinary nature of Gendass flesh and blood proved to be more difficult than he had anticipated.

Two months have passed. He has made remarkable progress in the extraordinary course, but he is still unable to conquer the flesh and blood of Gendass, and he cannot even complete the most basic reality experiment.

call!

He exhaled a long breath, as if releasing the pent-up frustration in his heart.

Wang Ya rallied her spirits. Nothing in life is ever smooth sailing; difficulties and setbacks are inevitable on life's journey.

As long as you work hard to overcome the difficulties, that's enough.

He had no interest in cleaning the laboratory. Under his mental perception, he could see that all the flesh and blood inside were dead, irreversibly dead.

The clash between the two forces resulted in their mutual cancellation and eventual demise.

Wang Ya arrived at the laboratory where the Night Moon Elf was located. There was only one experimental individual in the nutrient tank, named "Number Three".

The experimental subject "Number Four" was observed in a dedicated culture chamber, where the flesh and blood of Gendass could be implanted at any time. The repeated failures of the real-world experiments made Wang Ya hesitate, so he temporarily stopped conducting experiments on the virtual aspects.

He felt that something was wrong with him and he needed to analyze the root cause.

When he entered the inner room, the figure inside the nutrient tank had fair skin that appeared swollen from prolonged immersion in the nutrient solution, and his brows were furrowed, with his eyelids seemingly about to open.

Inside the laboratory, at a research workbench, Wang Ya tore the draft in front of him to shreds. His eyes were frighteningly gloomy, and he even couldn't help but slam his fist on the metal tabletop.

A fist-shaped mark appeared, and the skin on his palm was only slightly red. He couldn't help but take a deep breath to suppress the turbulent emotions in his heart.

He was wrong, and very wrong.

The distinction between illusion and reality is not so simple to study; even many wizards from the Underdark cannot do this.

The Hound of Gendass is not powerful in itself; its value lies in achieving a balance between two things, resulting in a unique characteristic that is clearly the product of a higher level of power.

He wanted to cross such a high level to try to achieve enlightenment, but it was simply impossible; his foundation and other resources couldn't support him.

Even with the Eye of Truth, the time required for analysis depends on Wang Ya's own understanding and the data in the database. He had tried before; within the past two months, the fourth wizard rune had been analyzed, and the available target was used on the flesh and blood of Gendass.

Analyzing characteristics and abilities yields results quickly; this was the same type of analysis used in the Mayan kingdom.

But when Wang Ya tried to analyze the essence and understand the balance between illusion and reality, time had reached a terrifying two hundred years.

This is an astonishing amount of time. Could it be that once the analysis is successful, he will understand how to advance to a formal wizard? Wang Ya was frightened by this leap in time. With only a little over a year left, it was simply impossible to do so.

The books in the outer area of ​​the library have been collected to a near extent, but the cost of collecting the inner core area is too high and cannot be considered for the time being.

This means that the analytical capabilities of the Eye of Truth have reached their limit.

Should we give up and instead focus on mastering energy magic and improving our own strength?

Having mastered the two intermediate-level sorcery spells from the inherited sorcery book, Wang Ya believed that his opponents would not be so weak; they would be stronger, and it was even possible that a second-level sorcerer apprentice would emerge.

Not enough, not nearly enough.

What he possesses, his powerful opponents also possess. He cannot abandon the research on Gendass flesh and blood, and he must learn and refine his sorcery to make it stronger and more suitable for himself. His strength cannot be neglected either; becoming a second-level wizard apprentice is a crucial hurdle.

The more anxious Wang Ya became, the calmer his mind became, and his intellect began to work rapidly.

His current level of strength is not primarily due to the Eye of Truth, but rather to his wisdom, hard work, and the scientific thinking he gained from his previous life.

The series of studies and experiments stemming from Gendas flesh are all based on cancer cells. Viewing Gendas flesh as an extraordinary cancer cell, with its ability to proliferate and engulf indefinitely, aligns with its characteristics.

Wang Ya had some doubts; did the characteristic of unlimited proliferation have to be conceived in the manner of cancer cells?

Is it possible that there are more subtle and diverse possibilities?

Suddenly, Wang Ya seemed to have thought of something, as if a bolt of lightning struck the depths of his mind.

He's being too one-sided and too certain. The variables in wizarding experiments aren't limited to just that. Besides, the material structures of the two worlds are vastly different. The matter in the wizarding world is far more terrifying, more unpredictable, and more difficult to study.

No, from another perspective, he shouldn't be thinking about achieving both the virtual and the real, because that's simply not something that can be done right now.

The key issue to consider is how to resolve the limitations of the Harak bloodline, unleash its full potential, and enhance its strength to prepare for the upcoming competition in the secret realms.

Wang Ya's eyes grew brighter and brighter. Holding a quill pen, he began writing on the draft paper, the dense text constantly filling the blank space.

Inspiration flowed like a spring, and his thoughts had never raced so fast.

As time went by, one sheet of draft paper was filled with writing, then two, then a third. It wasn't until nightfall that Wang Ya finally stopped writing on his aching wrist and put down his quill pen.

He looked up, a smile appearing on his face. Perhaps he had found the real solution.

Why bother studying reality and illusion? Ultimately, the flesh and blood of Harak and the flesh and blood of Gendass are two different things.

The latter is even more so because each tiny fibrous bud has its own self, can continuously devour others, and has an abnormal ability to survive.

The fusion at the level of flesh and blood is too crude and too far-fetched. Historically, only a few impatient white wizards and bloodline wizards who disliked trouble have deployed some of their research findings on a large scale to the human kingdoms.

Using hundreds of millions of human bodies to adapt to the properties of corresponding substances.

When a species, with a large number of life forms, dies out in enough numbers, it will spontaneously evolve corresponding antibody substances.

That was the result the wizard wanted.

Wang Ya's actions were somewhat similar, but more sophisticated, and he also used methods to intervene and the Eye of Truth to assist him, so it seemed to have a higher success rate.

Ultimately, he was still influenced by the single idea of ​​extraordinary cancer cells. The wizarding world is different from his previous life. Some theories from his previous life can serve as inspiration or ideas to try, but they should never be taken as correct and used to continue down that path.

Wang Ya has learned a lesson.

Of course, it's not necessarily wrong. Ultimately, it's because Wang Ya's level is too low. The balance between illusion and reality is what third-level wizard apprentices and ultimate wizard apprentices are pursuing.

Thinking about it this way, it might actually be related to advancing to the rank of a formal wizard.

That's not something Wang Ya should be considering right now. The Heart of the Evil God and the Hound of Gendass are in the lab anyway, they won't run away, we can think about them later.

If you furrow your brow slightly, you can start to think about things from multiple levels, including microorganisms, bacteria, and viruses.

The virus made Wang Ya ponder for a moment. The appearance of Gendas flesh and blood, besides being similar to cancer cells, also seemed to be related to the virus.

Could it be some kind of extraordinary virus, rather than extraordinary cancer cells?

It is impossible to determine whether this proliferation and recovery is a result of replacement caused by infecting the host's flesh cells, or whether it is due to the direct reproduction and replication of the host by stealing nutrients from the flesh.

Thinking is useless; you need to try. Once you have a method, the experimental process will be quick, and there will be enough time left for Wang Ya to complete it.

Regarding the progress in witchcraft, there haven't been any difficulties. If things proceed as planned, we'll be able to conduct witchcraft tests on the two intermediate witchcraft techniques in a month.

The follow-up improvement plan needs to be expedited. The progress of the Extraordinary Disciplines and the Vast Ocean Meditation Method is steady and without problems.

The laboratory's current equipment is not yet capable of performing more microscopic experimental operations, as it is a free, self-provided laboratory.

Those wizard instruments are even more advanced; they are carried by wizards and are regularly maintained, making them extremely high-end.

There are many ways to purchase it, such as the Blackwater Trading Post in the Free Zone, or exchanging it with the headquarters in the Commercial Zone, but all of them are undoubtedly extremely expensive.

It's impossible for lower house wizards to afford it, but members of wizarding families can purchase it with the support of their families.

Some even already possess such wizarding instruments, so there's no need to purchase them.

Wang Ya was genuinely envious. Newcomers to wizarding families didn't have to worry about many things; their families had already prepared everything in advance.

Unlike him, who has to go to great lengths to get everything he wants.

Of course, as a price to pay, the newborns of these wizarding families are destined to be unable to escape their families and will have to pay the price for them.

These are the buttons that hold relationships, family ties, a sense of responsibility, a sense of identity, and so on.

Wang Ya's eyes flickered; he knew he couldn't possibly buy it using magic stones.

There is another way to obtain it.

In the dimly lit library, Wang Ya went straight to the mission management department at the very back of the first floor.

Wade stood at the entrance, seemingly waiting for him. He nodded to him and then walked inside.

Wang Ya had informed the wizard Kelan of the relevant information in advance through the wizard's mark, and the wizard agreed.

The solution he could think of was to purchase these devices through the wizard Kolan's channels. As for the consumption of magic stones, he still had a large amount of Dark Points. Using Dark Points to buy magic stones would be very unprofitable, as the exchange rate was one to ten, but there was no other way.

Exchanging Magic Stones for Dark Points yields the same amount, and it's extremely difficult to find a wizard willing to do so.

2000 Dark Points correspond to 20,000 Magic Stones, enough for Wang Ya to purchase several high-end wizard instruments that meet the requirements.

They met with the wizard Kelan in a room. He was still dressed in androgynous clothes, his voice was cold, but his expression was somewhat surprised. "You actually have this kind of request, which is a bit unexpected. These kinds of wizarding instruments are not something you can handle right now."

"At the very least, only seasoned second-level wizard apprentices, capable of conducting highly complex wizard experiments independently, would choose this wizard equipment."

Curious, Wizard Kolan didn't ask Wang Ya why. He readily agreed to Wang Ya's request, exchanging Dark Points for Magic Stones in exchange for purchasing related wizarding equipment.

In some ways, she actually had an advantage, as Dark Points are much harder to obtain than Magic Stones and are extremely difficult to accumulate.

"I almost forgot you're a tycoon; you probably have more Dark Points than I do." A faint smile appeared on the cool face of the Wizard of Coran.

Wang Ya was taken aback. Was this a joke, a teasing remark?

However, something feels a little strange.

He always felt that the way the wizard Kolan looked at him and his attitude towards him were somewhat different.

"By the way, did you learn the witchcraft recorded on the parchment scroll I gave you last time?" Wizard Kolan smoothed his gray hair, his long eyelashes revealing expectant eyes.

Wang Ya: "."

Wang Ya felt even stranger, and even a little nervous for no reason. This wizard, Kelan, was really too strange.
